Decided I needed another car in my life so purchased the above recently. Big thanks to CMC for servicing and sorting out all the niggles. Roll on the 14th.

Very nice. Sure I saw that at Craig's last Saturday when I picked up my new VX220 NA that is also silver. Hope you're having as much fun as I am in mine.

Thanks guys!
Cosmetically it has a few issues but mechanically it is in great shape. Will need nitrons and some decent pads when the budget allows. Hope to do lots of track days and hopefully frolic, with Tom, if SWMBO can be convinced.
Bang for buck I think it's very hard to beat!

Hi ed
The nitrons streets are pretty good and fairly well priced so not too bad.
Good to see you back with a track toy

I think we will need a Lego Elise sub forum at this rate
I had a silver VXT for 4 1/2 years, then downgraded to an S3 Elise S for 6 months. Back in another VX again, though only an NA. Might go down the SC route at some point.
If you are going to track it, get an alloy air intake pipe. The plastic std one goes above the turbo manifold and collapses when warm. Feels like the car is misfiring.
